    Pasteurizing Egg?

    Do any of you pasteurize your eggs? When making mayo in one recipe it was suggested. Have you ever used Hydrogen Peroxide to pasteurize them? If so what percentage and for how long?

    Marek's disease in young chicks

    no one has been vaccinated. Today I bleached all the coops and destroyed the suffering one and moved the others that I am suspecting to become sick into a quarantine. What else can I do? Should I vaccinate the entire flock and the last three chicks?
